I am attempting to save pictures on my USB stick and it says I don't have permission. I don't believe I have ever had to put a password in to use this so why would it say this?
 
If it was a password issue you would see a password prompt. It's much more likely to be a security issue related to who is allowed access the folder you are wanting to copy from.

Right-click the source folder and choose "Properties".
Click the "Security" tab.
Click the "Edit" button.
Highlight your user account.
Tick relevant permissions.
Click "OK"
